No ftp as root, just regular user acct on box.
/etc/hosts.deny and .allow are not preventing access.
No firewall (same lan, Linux firewalls disabled).
kill -HUP PID of inetd after config changes.
I'd use sftp but it's a Win2k box I need to conect to.
I remember that there was another file that needed to be
edited for ftp access in SuSE Linux, but I forgot, since it was a couple of years ago I did it last.

I get the famous "connection refused' error. I seem to remember hearing
about another file needing to be edited to enable this, but can't remember where it is (old age).
Help!

There are more possibilities: The obvious one is /etc/ftpusers (you're not trying to ftp as root. now are you) ;-)
the other files to check have to do with tcp_wrapper: /etc/hosts.deny and /etc/hosts.allow. I guess you would know if ports are blocked by a firewall.
Copying files across can also be done, securely, with scp or sft,
sftp that is of course. Oh, forgot to ask: did you restart inetd after the change you made?
which both come as part of openssh. cheers, Marcel
